To be able to start the Brave Researchers in World of Warcraft: Dragonflight, you will first be required to complete Iyali’s Behavior Analysis “Homework” mission. Here's what you'll need to do:

  • Find Iyali whom you can easily locate to the south of the Walking Shores map. She will be standing on the cliffs. As you interact with her, she will ask for your help with her research project. You will be required to select the first option, Homework, as it will then accept the quest.
  • The quest is a rather easy one. You only need to pet three Sleeping Whelps, which can be easily found using the mini-map. The locations of these creatures will be marked by circles on the map. After you have petted three of them, you can return to Iyali and report your progress.
  • However, make sure to watch out for dragons in the area, as it’s more than likely that they will attack you if they spot you making your way to the Whelps. After you have petted the Whelps and reported back to Iyali, you will get the option to Report Whelp Behavior and then answer all the questions accordingly.
  • Once you have submitted your report, you will need to talk to Iyali again and then select the Complete quest option. This will complete the missions and automatically start the Brave Researchers questline for you.
